Here’s what the UN says on the matter.
Israel is a democracy with well-established and independent institutions…
In the occupied Palestinian territory…
So at least in the reality where the UN exists, Israel is a democracy and the Palestinian territories are occupied (as opposed to annexed).
I’d love to hear more about the reality that “we” (you and your woefully uninformed friends I presume?) are present in.
An Apartheid is not a democracy.
Even if it were, those aren’t mutually exclusive. Most, if not all democracies are flawed in some fashion.
But still the war cabinet fully supports what Netanyahu is saying here.
So much so that members have been on the verge of resigning several times. You underestimate just how frail Netanyahus position really is.
So you are correct to point out that it is not just Netanyahu but the israeli government that does not want a ceasefire.
It does, just not at the terms Hamas demands.
The rest of your comment makes no sense.
I’m perfectly willing to clarify. If there is something you fail to understand, please highlight it.
Netanyahu is not the end-all-be-all of Israeli decisionmaking. Unlike Hamas, the Israeli state is a democratic institution. If an agreement is formulated between that guarantees the Israeli citizenry that Gazan islamic terrorists won’t repeat an october 7 massacre in the future, Netanyahu will not be able to stop it. Time is what is needed to create such an agreement.
However, as always, Hamas prioritizes their own interests above those of the Gazan populace. They know very well Israel can not realistucally agree to an unconditional, permanent end to hostilities, as that was the situation that led to october 7th in the first place.
At the minimum I would expect a permanent end to the war to be conditioned on Hamas releasing the remaining civilian hostages.
Would still be better to agree to a temporary ceasefire whilst a permanent one is negotiated.
Oh it’s a problem here to. You do not want to know how much information is passed on through rapidly scrawled sticky notes in our healthcare system - particularly in emergency situations.
A good/skilled driver is not necessarily a safe driver & vice versa.
For the pinnacle of that statement, look up the “suicide evo” on YT.
To be fair - a whole month of anything is excessive
You have any tips? My power consumption on battery is ~30% higher on linux than they were on windows
Yeah, I honestly give very few shits about the political opinions of the lemmy devs as long as it doesn’t taint the project itself -and if it did at some point in the future, forking an open-source project is stupidly easy.
I even donate a smidge of money to the development effort via librepay - man does need it to live after all.
Dessalines & Nutomic put a lot of effort into building and maintaining the lemmy codebase. I respect that.
Liberty means freedom, not only from government,s,but from authority in general. Corporations, religious organizations, criminal organizations, political organizations and other people.
French culture has a long and bloody history specifically centered around getting rid of religious rule (read christianity), and implementing laws that essentially amount to freedom from religion. This is unlike a lot of other countries which focused on freedom of religion.
When large muslim communities form, this often leads to the imposition of their religious expressions upon others. This specifically clashes with French culture, where religion is a private matter, for private spaces. Hence why many french react strongly when muslims complain about how the very laws they relied on to rid themselves of the yoke of Christianity is somehow specifically discriminatory against them.
No, it’s not discriminatory against islam or muslims in particular. It’s a defence mechanism against the imposition of regressive, anti-humanist values on the general population by organized religion.
This immediately reminded me of Adventures with Anxiety, a browser game about living with Anxiety.
It’s very well done, and simultaneously funny & serious.
I hope you realize that you in your comment advocated for the killing of at least half a million people.
Was there even a ceasefire to begin with?
Hamas has been shooting rockets at Israel for years, and Israel has been bombing Hamas as well.
Why exactly would they remove the fence? Lots of countries (particularly ones with hostile relations) have similar constructions on their borders.
Yeah, tragically that’s the case with many of the enviromental movements where I live as well.
In the Scandinavian countries this sort of software is usually provided by the school/university, so the students don’t have to buy it. You may however be (essentially) forced to use that software, since other options aren’t supported. The exam software my uni uses for instance only runs on Windows & MacOS.
Nah, I doubt they’ll manage what they say. Some maybe, and shit’ll suck no doubt, but there’s a lot of inertia in the bureaucracy. My real worry is what the CCP & Russia will do once they have a green light that the US won’t intervene in their expansionist ideals.
